{"product_id":"the-mathematical-language-of-quantum-teiko-heinosaari-9780521195836","title":"The Mathematical Language of Quantum Theory: From Uncertainty to Entanglement","description":"For almost every student of physics, the first course on quantum theory raises a lot of puzzling questions and creates a very uncertain picture of the quantum world. This book presents a clear and detailed exposition of the fundamental concepts of quantum theory: states, effects, observables, channels and instruments. It introduces several up-to-date topics, such as state discrimination, quantum tomography, measurement disturbance and entanglement distillation. A separate chapter is devoted to quantum entanglement. The theory is illustrated with numerous examples, reflecting recent developments in the field. The treatment emphasises quantum information, though its general approach makes it a useful resource for graduate students and researchers in all subfields of quantum theory. Focusing on mathematically precise formulations, the book summarises the relevant mathematics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Teiko Heinosaari, M疵io Ziman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521195837\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521195836\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/15\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 339\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.80h x 6.80w x 0.80d","brand":"Teiko Heinosaari","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43946714923263,"sku":"9780521195836","price":117.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_c7c61e99-955c-4c69-97f4-8bb680a7bf93.jpg?v=1681514719","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-mathematical-language-of-quantum-teiko-heinosaari-9780521195836","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
